Warwick Plumbing & Heating Corp

Warwick Plumbing & Heating Corp, doing business as Warwick Mechanical Group, is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Newport News, Virginia that operates as a prime contractor delivering plumbing, heating, and HVAC repair, maintenance, and installation services to federal facilities across the Navy, Veterans Affairs, and NASA. The company is predominantly a prime contractor (98% of recent awards), competes full-and-open without SBA set-aside designations, and operates with a named subsidiary, Minton & Roberson Inc.

Warwick's capability footprint centers on mechanical-systems maintenance and emergency repair at federal installations. The top NAICS categories are water and sewer line and related structures construction (148 awards) and plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning contractors (31 awards), with PSC concentration in repair or alteration of other utilities (80 awards) and maintenance-repair-alteration of plumbing, heating, and waste disposal equipment (16 awards). Representative prime work includes a $130.5 thousand purchase order from VA's Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 in 2021 for HVAC replacement parts at Newport News VA Medical Center; a $44 thousand order from VISN 6 in 2021 for humidity troubleshooting and repair services at Hampton VA Medical Center; a $33.6 thousand purchase order from the Department of Veterans Affairs in 2023 for boiler delivery; a $19.7 thousand firm fixed-price order from VISN 6 in 2023 for emergency heat pump service; and a $9.9 thousand purchase order from VISN 6 in May 2026 for steam tunnel leak repair at Hampton VA Medical Center under FAR 8.405.6 sole-source authority. More recently, Warwick subcontracted to Huntington Ingalls on a May 2025 award for CVN 75 refueling complex overhaul (SGCC piping repurposing) and to Cianbro Corporation on a June 2024 award for complete plumbing, HVAC systems, and retractable roofs at the Navy's Dry Dock 4 Refueling Complex.

Customer concentration is heavily concentrated with the Department of the Navy. The top three agencies by award count account for 84% of recent awards, led by the Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command (117 awards, $50.1 million combined potential value), the Department of the Navy Installations Command (29 awards, $2.8 million), and the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 (28 awards, $1.1 million). The combined potential-value and award-count rankings align closely — Navy NEFC anchors both volume and dollars — reflecting a long-standing relationship anchored to facilities maintenance at naval shipyards and naval installations. Warwick places the majority of its work under two Navy IDCs: Indefinite Delivery Contract N4008514D8137 (92 task orders, $5.3 million combined potential value) and Indefinite Delivery Contract N4008509D2812 (53 task orders, $8.1 million).

Activity has declined substantially in recent years. The vendor received five awards in 2021, then one or two awards per year in 2023 through 2026, suggesting significant recompete risk or loss of task-order volume on the Navy IDCs that historically anchored the footprint. Only one award (combined potential value $10 thousand) reaches ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months. Service Contract Inventory records show minimal recent SCI-reportable federal service activity: two records in FY2024 (1.5 FTEs) and three records in FY2022 (8.7 FTEs), all as named subcontractor, with no SCI prime records across the fiscal years covered. This indicates that Warwick's federal work is predominantly goods and facilities-maintenance purchases under small-dollar purchase orders rather than large service contracts above the $150,000 SCI reporting threshold. Warwick operates as a subcontractor on larger Navy and defense-industrial primes, including RQ Construction on a 2021 combat service support facilities HVAC/plumbing project, and carries minimal federal subcontract volume relative to its prime footprint.
